We need to get this young man. Exactly what we need right now. 

Very solid pickup. Love it! 

I find it very unethical for Oats to go after our recruits.

A student can back out of the Letter of Intent and go to another school if they wish.  However, unless they are given a release they cannot play their freshman year without a release.  Over the last 5 - 10 years there has been a lot of pressure on schools to grant releases in situations like this where the head coach who recruited a player is either fired or gets a new job.

Thanks for this. I just hope we can re-recruit some of these young kids if not all that we've lost. 

What's the point of signing a LOI if you can back out any time you like? There should be some sorf of discouraging factor before doing so.

Lol yea I'm giving him no credit for a canned response (directly) to the reasons he's faced criticism, a week after leaving.

I said it then and I'll say it now. Andre Allen, a player who never even made it to the team gave a more timely, heartfelt thank you and goodbye than the coach that was here for 6 years.

I take back none of my criticism of the way he has handled this situation. Goodbye.

Was this kid offered by Bama right after hiring Oats?
